The front page of today's Daily Mail refers to the 2025/26 budget as the one "we've all been dreading".
Remind me, how did they respond to the one where Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng fucked the country's finances sideways..? 🤨

Why doesn't Kemi Badenoch trust the deputy chancellor to respond to the budget speech?
Saying Rachel Reeves is the worst chancellor of all time is a bit rich from someone who supported Kwasi Kwarteng. #Budget

I think at this point if you're including Diane Abbott - a woman who has never held government office, has been a backbencher since 2020, and is scarcely a government ally - on your list of political wrongdoers, we all know exactly what your real concerns are

Utterly classless from Kemi.
Desperate, personal, gutter attacks - not economics.

This revealed five broad phases, split up by four pivotal “turning points” in which brain organisation moves on to a different trajectory, at around the ages of nine, 32, 66 and 83 years.
